Sanders’ negotiations with the Democratic hierarchy will tell the tale.

Those on the shortlist include Massachusetts Sen.
Democratic Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders knows he won’t be the president.
“I love my candidate for president”, said Rep. Joe Crowley, D-N.Y.
A small group of Clinton campaign confidants has been sifting through publicly available information about more than two dozen possible contenders for more than a month.
Yet Warren is one of the Democrats being considered for the post.
Clinton is now the presumptive nominee and has shifted into a general election mode since voting ended several weeks ago.
They will also chronicle day-to-day life in both the Brooklyn campaign headquarters in NY as well as state campaign offices to give voters insights into how the campaign runs through Instagram and Snapchat.
If Clinton were to tap Warren as her No 2, she would be choosing one of the Senate’s most outspoken liberals and a proponent of tough Wall Street regulation, who has always been viewed as a running mate who could help Clinton appeal to Sanders’ loyal supporters. “Until the superdelegates vote, it’s not over”, she said, adding Clinton “needs to make real concessions” and adopt key pieces of Sanders’ platform to win over his supporters. First – shouldn’t this raise a whole lot of red flags about how beholden Hillary Clinton actually is to Wall Street? Aides and staffers in Brooklyn all watched the speech live, in a sign of how significant it was to her campaign.
If Sanders and some of his most vehement supporters can’t find a way to more clearly acknowledge the reality of their situation, they simply won’t get the sort of coverage they need in order to move forward into the Philadelphia convention next month and beyond.
Kaine, who became a fluent Spanish speaker as a young missionary, is seen as a safe pick who would bring support from a swing state, executive experience from his term as Virginia’s governor, and some foreign policy credibility with the left for his efforts to pass a new Authorization for Use of Military Force to limit the war on terrorism.
However, there have been some tensions over the past week over leadership at the Democratic National Committee.
Warren is on Clinton’s shortlist of prospective running mates.
“It is like the Trump campaign went on vacation for the past 48 days”, said Ford O’Connell, a Republican political strategist who is not affiliated with Trump’s campaign.
Hillary Clinton says Donald Trump is going after her personally because he doesn’t have any answers on the substance of the campaign.
In her gleeful filleting of Trump’s character, the former secretary of state seems to have found her voice as never before during this campaign. Sherrod Brown and New Jersey Sen. The vitriol he is getting on social media and in mainstream media for not already have said the magic words of endorsement is really a wonderful con, because other than saying those words he is behaving like the good Democrat he truly is.
He is also urging Clinton to pick a running mate who he considers to be liberal, like Elizabeth Warren who was been effective in attacking Trump. Longtime Clinton allies John Podesta and Cheryl Mills are overseeing the search and few people beyond them are believed to know the full list of candidates being vetted.
He said Clinton spent “her entire life” raising money for special interests and has “taken plenty of money out for herself”.
